[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were told in our interview they take 50 for 9th at GDS.[/quote] The number confusion is due to siblings. This year they have 20+ siblings applying. They have a separate application for siblings that is due in Dec. There are 50 total spots but only 30 or so are left after sibings. It's not a conspiracy. They add 50 kids. 20 of these are siblings that are added in a totally separate process. [/quote] 20 siblings is a lot! I know from friends that siblings are pretty much an auto-admit. One friend had their 2nd child admitted as a sibling into 9th with not great grades and an SSAT in the 30%. This was a few years ago. They were worried it wouldn’t be high enough, but the sibling was admitted. [/quote]
